May 31, 200620 yr Is there any collaboration between MSFT and MS Research initiatives such as eScience? I'm curious if there's any in-house applied research at MS in scientific computing/atmospheric science on subjects like air dynamics and weather, other than what is done by ACES? I know that eScience is relatively new initiative in MSR, however I don't know all the details other than HPC grid computations, so I'm curious if future MSFT products will somehow benefit from it, maybe in terms of more realistic physics and/or distributed computations? Thanks,=S.V.=
